Fran�ois,
Update... I'm still trying to catch info from an X/KDE crash I get randomly;
but the last one happened since the above problem... I noticed yesterday that
my LICQ was not running and when I tried to start it, it gave:
licq: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
[1]+ Exit 127 licq
Since there is no readily available info on how to restore a missing library, I
just installed egcs and egcs-c++ which gave me the library...
How does this relate to the original problem...?
On a lark, I tried to run Software Installer again, and it started (instead of
hanging as reported previously)... so, I tried to update SSH...
# ssh -v
OpenSSH_2.9.9p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090602f
SI correctly says openssh2.9.9p2-2.1mdk is installed; but when I try to update
it, I get the "Errors found" screen with:
Some errors where encountered while checking your wishes:
^^^^^ typo in SI! Should be "were".
Packages already installed
openssh-3.0.2p1-1.1mdk,
openssh-clients-3.0.2p1-1.1mdk,
openssh-server-3.0.2p1-1.1mdk
Sorry, but all packages raised an error.
So I can't proceed with the installation.
# rpm -qa | grep openssh
openssh-clients-2.9.9p2-2.1mdk
openssh-2.9.9p2-2.1mdk
openssh-server-2.9.9p2-2.1mdk
and rpm --rebuilddb does not help...
LM8.1 SI has some serious flaws from my perspective and since the average user
can do security updates if they encounter these problems, it translates to
"can't do security updates"... hence a security issue...
Any luck with the files yet...?
